After a particularly lousy landing made from the right seat of a commercial airliner, that FO heard the Captain announce: “Ladies and gentlemen, XXX Airlines wishes to apologize for that rough landing provided today by our First Officer”.
Some months later the same crew was together and, sure enough, the Captain made an even worse one. The First Officer immediately jumped on the intercom, announcing: “Ladies and Gentlemen, XXX Airlines wishes to apologize for that rough landing provided today by our Captain”.
The Captain turned angrily to his FO:
-“What did you say that for?”.
-“Remember a couple of months back when you did that to me?”, the First Officer replied. “Now we’re even!”.
–“But I never keyed the mike!”, protested the Captain.

This guy was an excellent pilot, but not real good at making passengers feel at ease.
For example, one time the airplane in front of him blew a tire on landing, scattering chunks of rubber all over the runway. He was asked to hold while the trucks came out to clean up.
His announcement: “Ladies and gentlemen, I’m afraid there will be a short delay before our arrival. They’ve closed the airport while they clean up what’s left of the last airplane that landed there”.
